Clarence Thomas compares ‘modern-day liberal’ to a Klansman in new film
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has blasted Democrats, including former Senate Judiciary Committee and now-presidential candidate Joe Biden, over the sexual-misconduct allegations against the jurist during his 1991 confirmation hearings.
Thomas opens up about the process in a new documentary and claims the “biggest impediment” to his life and legal career was not the KKK but the “modern-day liberal.”

Fact check: TRUE.
Thanks GrandJediMasterYoda.
There’s a weed called bidens. It’s known for its annoying clinging seeds, which feature two pricks.
So true.
Well, now, the Dems will DEMAND Thomas recuse himself from anything involving Biden.
That’s called HARD BALL, which is how the Democrats play.
(of course Thomas will tell the Dems where to put it)
Justice Thomas knows all about it. He experienced a “high-tech lynching.”
Yes, he is CORRECT!! And Right...
Democrats in whatever costume they can create are still trying to scare people from voting for Republicans (whether they be black or white).
The KKK was the insurgent terrorist wing of the Democrat Party and founded in reconstruction.
We won the war in Iraq in short order but continued to fight against “the insurgency” for years (fueled by troops from other countries).
The Civil War ended in only a few years but the Klan held power for roughly 100 years afterwards still fighting.
Senator Biden was the first questioner. Instead of the softball questions he’d promised to ask, he threw a beanball straight at my head, quoting from a speech I’d given four years earlier at the Pacific Legal Foundation and challenging me to defend what I’d said.pp 235-236 of "My Grandfather's Son" by Clarence Thomas”I find attractive the arguments of scholars such as Stephen Macedo, who defend an activist Supreme Court that would strike down laws restricting property rights.”
That caught me off guard, and I had no recollection of making so atypical a statement, which shook me up even more.
“Now, it would seem to me what you were talking about,” Senator Biden went on to say, “is you find it attractive the fact that they are activists and they would like to strike down existing laws that impact on restricting the use of property rights, because you know, that is what they write about.”
Since I didn’t remember making the statement in the first place, I didn’t know how to respond to it. All I could say in reply was that “it has been some time since I have read Professor Macedo … But I don’t believe that in my writings I have indicated that we should have an activist Supreme Court.”
It was, I knew, a weak answer. Fortunately, though, the young lawyers who had helped prepare me for the hearing had loaded all of my speeches into a computer and at the first break in the proceedings they looked this one up. The senator, they found, had wrenched my words out of context. I looked at the text and saw that the passage he’d read out loud had been immediately followed by two other sentences: “But the libertarian argument overlooks the place of the Supreme Court in a scheme of separation of powers. One does not strengthen self-government and the rule of law by having the non-democratic branch of the government make policy.” The point I’d been making was the opposite of the one that Senator Biden claimed I had made.
Joe Biden threatened to lynch Corn Pops with a link of chain in the 1960s. What makes people still think that what Joe Biden has done isn’t a high tech lynching?
“The senator, they found, had wrenched my words out of context.”
Absolutely typical for the left isn’t it. They do that to Trump constantly. They are scum of the earth because they do it deliberately. Biden damn well knew he was taking it out of context and really hope that moron gets his ass handed to him with regards to his son CrackHunter and the Ukraine.
That was the most powerful part of the book. Thomas was very precise about what a sleazeball Joe Biden really is. Stupidest guy in the Senate and basically a corrupt, evil pig.
I bought a copy of the book at a library sale. Sadly it was labeled for the African American section. Self-segregation at work.
Both are democrats.
Thomas should quit and allow Trump to appoint him AG on the way out. Just think of the hearings!
